Netflix dropping new show about a rich black family: #blackAF

[AquaCityBoy]

Rashida Jones?

Is Jesse Williams the uncle too?

 

[Fletch]

Them nikkas on Blackish already basically rich too, they be having Anthony Anderson wear Gucci crewneck sweaters ... What 45+ year dad in a "middle" class family wears Gucci crewneck sweaters

I would say on Black-ish they’re upper middle-upper class. She’s a doctor and he’s ad exec so they’re probably pulling in mid six figures a year not counting if he gets bonuses etc

 

[Cheese McNair]

I just wish he woulda chosen a different lead cause the half white wife is too close to Bow. Wonder how he gonna tell her story without it being too similar of characters.
So it seems like a more ballin version of Blackish.

She actually plays Bow’s sister on Blackish

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

I’ve never even see black ish. Speak for yourself breh.

You should try Black-ish.

Idk what the trailer was like, but it's actually funny. Anthony Anderson, Deon Cole, and Laurence Fishburne are hilarious on it.

Laurence Fishburne is the funniest one. The kids, though, are cringy and annoying.

 

[Ghostface Trillah]

I mean Fresh Prince was just that but it wasn't corny and still had flavor. Show in OP looks incredibly corny, maybe just a sign of the times I guess...


Never seen one ep of Blackish either

No. Will had flavor. He was the fish out of water and the flavor came from his interactions with the banks.

There's still black people to this day that say the Cosby show was unrealistic.

now this really doea look terrible

 

[BaltimoreTwilightMarauder]

Why does every black show have to have the word black in it?

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

I guess this show is supposed to be to Black-ish what Curb your Enthusiasm is to Seinfeld.

The creator playing a fictional version of himself

Edit: I just watched the trailer and you guys are right. This shyt sucks.

 

[Burned Verses]

This the first black man Rashida Jones been on screen with?

 

[ALonelyDad]

I will wait for the reviews but that trailer didn't do any favors

 

[Elle Driver]

This dude Kenya Barris always got a mixed person on his show. We get it your wife is mixed. This don’t seem bad though.

 

[Luck]

Why is it assumed that all “well off” nikkas are a certain type of nikka..?

And no, if the so called “representation” of us in different class brackets is going to be corny and trash then nah they can keep it. We already got classics that represent us properly in different socioeconomic environments.

Plenty of regular and good cats with bread that don’t live and act like any of these new black shows...

 

[Peter Popoff]

I’ll give it a shot before I make my judgement

I feel you.

 

[Luck]

Black people: We don't have any representation and when we do it's all negative stereotypes

Also black people: That show about the well off black family with no negative stereotypes is mad corny. Only white people want to watch shyt like that.

You clowns make this same exact dap pandering ass post in literally every even somewhat controversial topic or discussion worthy thread like we all have the same exact opinions about everything


You internet mfs are retarded on my soul

we can have any discussion at any black gathering in real life and there will be plenty of differing opinions but here and online y’all see a few maybe black people say it and suddenly it’s all of all opinions...can’t do shyt but laugh at it

 

[Premeditated]

Rashida Jones has a Black man as her partner?

lol @ them casting Rashida Jones

so are all his lead women biracial now?
